The Battle of You and What Army?

The party left The Penitent and found that a Wild Hunt was amassing in order to, well...hunt them. Since they knew of the nearby Free Hold, they decided to lead one army into the other. This worked quite well, and the two parties soon began fighting each other.

Join Battle

Despite the words of warning from Feyth that they might not be able to take on the combined armies of both the Fair Folk and the Wild Hunt, Sirokos vaulted into battle (like the bullheaded simpleton he is). He grabbed the lasso that had at one point been attached to Feyth, who was now (wisely) floating above the battle and waiting for a more...feasible time to join, and swung down into the middle of everything. Ebon chose to take a moment to loot the jewelry from the Raksha Chieftain...'s armor, but was apparently quite quick about it.

Round One

Sirokos, being as crazy as he is, decided to use the momentum from his roll to catch a shield sitting on the ground and use its momentum to continue skidding across the ground and firing many, many times at BOTH armies. By charging wisdom through his conviction, the shots on the Wild Hunt proved devastating, destroying all of the army but a group of three Fire Aspects who employed charms to become immune to fire damage. His attack on the Fair Folk, however, was less effective. He did not completely obliterate the army. He only lit most of them on fire and caused all but the Raksha to run (or tumble) away. After this first attack, all that's left on the battlefield are the most powerful four opponents and many piles of smoking ash.

Ebon felt that the most prudent thing to do would be to pick up the Raksha Chieftain and begin strip-searching him for any and all jewels. She very much managed to pick him up and spent a few moments searching him.

Since he's insanely fast, Sirokos got to make another attack. He threw a handful of coins into the air to bank his shots off of, but they managed to dodge, so his attack proved ineffectual.

Next up was Duricorre, who took on all three of the Fire Aspects at once. The first Aspect had a rather blinding flame going, but the monk managed to punch through it with ease. So much ease, in fact, that the Dragon-Blooded's helmet flew forty yards in the air...propelled by the remains of the Dragon-Blooded himself. The second dodged his strike, but the third was not so lucky. He suffered a similar fate to the first.

The one remaining Fire Aspect was now confronted by Arisa. Her Inescapable Penetration was now aimed directly at the Aspect's chest. The lance went through the armor of the Aspect. And the clothing. And the flesh. And the clothing again. And the armor once more. That said, it went all the way through and the Aspect died an agonizingly penetrative death. Meanwhile, Rover moved underneath Ebon in order to open his maw for the awaiting treat.

Feyth took the opportunity to activate Demon-Wracking Glory and began cruising around the desert taking out the fleeing Fair Folk like a floating lawnmower of doom.

Unfortunately, the Raksha took the opportunity to climb on Ebon's back to avoid death in the form of toothy maw.

However, thanks to Ebon's skillful flying, he still ended up in Rover's maw, and the giant Tyrant Lizard devoured the final remaining opponent.
